Hi, I'm interested in painting a mural at the forest. Someone mentioned the main stairway still needed to be painted. Let me know if you are still looking for people, I would love to do it. ThanksLily ==On Mon, Nov 2, 2009 at 5:40 PM, <paint@theforest.org.uk> wrote:

Hello Lily

Yes. Come paint at Forest.

Please find the space you would like to paint, and provide a proposal. ( a sketch or some idea of your previous work, basically a description of what you want to do where)

then either submit it to us via Email, or on paper, ( Nix or Kata, Forest, 3 Bristo Pl. EH1 1EY) or leave it for us with the Kitchen Manager. and I will put it to the Front of House Working Group ... who are meeting next Monday.

they will chat about it and let you know.

If you paint a mural at Forest, you will get food and drink whist your painting and Volunteer Prices for a week after. We can also help with the costs of the materials. (although we are strapped for funds so there is a £15 limit. sorry. and you will have to provide receipts)

Thanks for your interest! Hope to meet you soon!

kind regards,

Nix.

Mural:

My current idea is to paint the first portion of the stairs, up to the first landing. It does not have to be this section, I am flexible concerning wall space. I wanted to paint bees, mostly because i recently did a quick fair trade banner with bees, and would like to do something similar..but with more freedom and space. I wouldn't need to many colours..maybe just black and white. I'm sure I can stretch 15 pounds pretty far. I've included some pictures to give you a better idea of what kind of things I do. Let me know how this sounds. Thanks!

sounds great, but Theres already Janet who would like to do murals next to staircase so we need to decide who should take that space or who would be better for that space, because I think that the other proposal sounds good too. But I think we should make both of them happen so just the space is the question.

so I meet her today in the forest, and I thought that it would be great if she could paint her murals in the basement on the walls leading from the fire exit door until the toilets. These walls are also need to be done and maybe more people are going to get to see it and it is also a big area just as the walls around the staircase, and we are also going to fix the big hole that is in the wall next to the freezer. She said that she also would like to do the ceiling and the floor (black and white zigzags). So I think that its looking really good, and this way the project of Janet can also happen, and we can also revive the basement as well. What do you think?
